Strip, Sand, Stain—Revive Your Outdoor Oasis!
Preparing a pergola for painting or staining is a meticulous process that begins with a thorough assessment of the structure’s condition. If the pergola has an existing finish, stripping old paint or stain is often necessary, using a chemical stripper or power washer to remove flaking or peeling layers, followed by sanding to smooth the surface.
